Yemen's Houthis issued a statement on the evening of October 3 local time, claiming that they used multiple ballistic missiles and drones to attack Aramco targets in the Saudi capital Riyadh, and that the operation was successful. Saudi Arabia has yet to issue an official statement. Unverified footage circulating on social media platform X shows heavy black smoke rising from various locations at the Aramco refinery in Riyadh. Meanwhile, according to Axios quoting two US officials, Saudi Arabia is planning to launch large-scale military operations against the Houthis within the next few days, with the goal of enabling the Houthis to control the coastal area of the Mander Strait, a key maritime channel.
